Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a polycarbonate resin composition pellet that has reduced yellow tinge without the need for an additive, and excellent light transmittance in a short wavelength region. This results in a light-guiding member that has uniform color tone. The method of this invention allows for the production of a polycarbonate resin composition pellet with these beneficial properties.

Problems solved by technology

By the way, in the anti-light incidence portion of a light-guiding member using the PC, light is liable to yellow and hence the color tone uniformity of a screen is hardly obtained.
However, the attempts are still insufficient and cannot be said to be at sufficient levels in practical use.

examples

[0107]The present invention is described more specifically by way of Examples below but the present invention is by no means limited to Examples below.

[Measurement of Viscosity-Average Molecular Weight (Mv)]

[0108]The viscosity of a methylene chloride solution at 20° C. was measured with an Ubbelohde viscometer and a limiting viscosity [η] was determined from the measurement, followed by the calculation of a molecular weight from the following equation.

[η]=1.23×10−5Mv0.83

[Measurement of Light Transmittance of Solution]

[0109]6.0 Grams of a PC pellet were weighed in a flask. Then, methylene chloride was poured into the flask so that the total volume became 50.0 mL, and the mixture was stirred until the PC was completely dissolved (concentration: 12 g / dL). The solution in which the PC had been completely dissolved and which had no concentration unevenness was charged into a transparent cell made of quartz glass having an optical path length of 5 cm and a width of 1 cm, and its light tr...

Abstract

Provided is a polycarbonate resin composition pellet, which has a light transmittance at a wavelength of 380 nm of 97.0% or more when the light transmittance is measured by using a methylene chloride solution having a concentration of 12 g / dL, the solution being charged into a quartz glass cell having an optical path length of 5 cm, and which has a viscosity-average molecular weight (Mv) of from 11,000 to 22,000.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a polycarbonate resin composition pellet and a method of producing the pellet, and more specifically, to a polycarbonate resin composition pellet to be used as a raw material for an optical member such as a light-guiding plate of a liquid crystal backlight unit and a method of producing the pellet.BACKGROUND ART[0002]A polycarbonate resin or resin composition (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as “PC”) has been used as the light-guiding member of a small liquid crystal display from the viewpoints of its heat resistance and mechanical strength (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In general, the PC is granulated into a pellet at 240 to 270° C. by extrusion granulation, and the pellet is subjected to injection molding or extrusion molding to be molded into various members.[0003]By the way, in the anti-light incidence portion of a light-guiding member using the PC, light is liable to yellow and hence the color tone uniformity of a...
